Went there today and I think it's closed for good? Should be open 1pm on a Sunday and it wasn't, and it looked like all the signage was removed. I think it's closed down but haven't flagged it as such since I don't have confirmation.

"Burger Fighter":
Set your expectations accordingly, is my take.
If you're in the mood for a gourmet burger with some fancy artisanal sauces, look elsewhere. This won't fit the bill.
If you're in the mood for your basic 'greasy spoon' cheeseburger with a ton of shoestring fries, this will definitely suffice. Sometimes we're all in the mood for that so it's good to have the option available.
I paid $7.99 for their cheeseburger special -- burger, fries, and a canned drink. The veggies, bun, and 'fighter sauce' (ketchup, mustard, mayo, and hot sauce all mixed) were all fine. The 4oz beef patty was pretty greasy and average tasting (didn't taste like it had any special herbs or spices in the mix, and lacked much flavour), while the cheese was your basic processed slice.
If you're in the mood for a simple diner-style cheeseburger, $8+tax is about the best price you'll find along Queen. Would've liked a 6oz patty for that price, but again the area isn't cheap and I basically got the cheapest combo on the menu.
I'd give it a 4/5 if the beef patty was the star of the show -- it's supposed to be the heart of the cheeseburger, and here it wasn't. I won't fault it for being what it is... so it's overall A-OK.
